Department of Labor

 

The Enacted budget passed by the Legislature on May 1, 2003 made the following changes to the Executive Budget:

·        Denied the Executive request to transfer the Commission on the Blind and Visually Handicapped from the Office of Children and Family Services to the Department of Labor

·        Denied the Executive request to transfer the Vocational and Educational Services for Individuals with Disabilities from the State Education Department to the Department of Labor.

·        Denied the Executive request to merge the Employment Relations Board with Public Employment Relations Board.

·        Reduced All Funds funding by $57 million relating to the denial of these proposals but which still reflects a $29.4 million increase over last year’s budget which is mostly due to Special Revenue-Other and Special Revenue-Federal increases in the Unemployment Insurance Fund.

·        Reduced funding for the Employment Relations Board by $500,000.  This was from the Maintenance Undistributed funding and was for the Empire State Advantage: excellence at work program.

·        Article VII legislation (S1406-B, section E2) establishes a special task force to report on funding options for the New York State Occupational Safety and Health Hazard Abatement Board.
